The answer was all he needed. He cleaned out the grit from the raw area on her elbow and poured some clean water from an unused canteen. He dabbed the site clean to prepare it for the salve.
"You're welcome." Angeal reached for the salve and dabbed the wound. His hands tried to be as gentle as possible without causing her too much pain. He didn't know how else to address the problem that happened respectively in both worlds and it was upsetting that he was part of her degrading as well. It just made the situation feel just that much worse.
He took the gauze that he cut and wrapped it around her arm as he dressed her scrape. His eyes cast down at the grass underneath them. He wanted to say that he was sorry for what had happened but there was that part of him that knew that he didn't do anything wrong. Then there was the other part of him in conflict that said that it was all his fault.
It hurt but it was a comfort at the same time that they had at least some common ground. He slowly stood after her wound was dressed and held his hand to help her to her feet. "Let's go."
